3rdtryguy Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 The gold from the Sierra Madre is practicaly worthless. We need a way to run those gold bars through a bottlecap press and turn them into golden bottlecaps. They wouldn't be actual money, but would be valueable collector's items easily sold for lots of caps.A couple of years ago a guy was working on this, but he kinda drifted away. He did the math, and computed that one Sierra Madre 35-lb gold bar would make 2800 caps, each worth 3.74 caps, but that was deemed too silly.So, he dropped it down to 500 caps each worth 20. What i would like to see is a way to use either the Sunset Sarsaparilla bottle cap press OR the one on the Counterfeiting shack be given the power to turn one SM gold bar into 500 golden caps, each worth 20 caps. The one in the sodapop factory already works and has a pop-up script when you activate it, so it might be easier to use that one. It's part of a quest in which you have to destroy it, though, so the one in the counterfeit shack might be a better choice, if a bit trickier since you'd have to attach the script to it.Now that i think about it, anyone who knows how to write a script probably wouldn't have a problem with that anyway. So, whaddya say? Wanna make what is sure to be an incredibly popular mod loved by thousands who wish the gold was worth all the trouble they went to in getting it?

Danny159 Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 The gold bar by it self can be sold for caps... :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jokerine Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Yes, for a base price of 10539. Know of any merchant in the game that has that amount of caps so you don't end up losing money in order to sell them? :dry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny159 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 You can buy the unique weapons from the gun runners with them. ;)Or buy a lot from someone and getting all their caps as well. The gold bars are for people with low bartering skill to be able to afford the awesome weapons from the Gunrunners. ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
